so i got some bulk BCAA's that i sip on during my workout but as we all know they taste horrible so im trying to find a decent product to mix them with i tried crystal light and dont mind it but people are telling me to stay away from it cause of the aspartame in it.

its fine if the suggestion you make has some carbs and sugar under 10 or so cause it during a workout so i doubt it will be a problem

any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

gatorade powder is good but has lots of sugar, or you could just mix it with some whey, maybe a juice flavoured protein?

Don`t mix bcaa powder with whey powder. For BCAA or any amino to do it`s work, you don`t want the presence of other amino`s in high quantity`s.

Pills will cost you big time, buy the stuff by the kilo. If you`re using worthwhile doses, there is no other way around it.

To answer your question crystal light for sure if cals are a concern. During off season, gatorade. It`s beleived the insulin spike is more anabolic with the amino`s.

i used gatorade post workout and per scoop its like 30 carbs 30 sugar so for intra workout with the BCAA i could always try like 1/3rd of a scoop
